Notes

The Ark is the Independent star ship belonging to the smuggler Nomund Kor, and is considered a top of line vessel with numerous modifications that differ from the stock YT-1300 model. The ship's cockpit has been centered to the saucer-like hull to make the vessel symmetrical like the newer YT-2000. A high-output Ion turbine has been added to provide the vessel with sublight speeds that are unmatched by most ordinary light freighters. A hyperdrive generator, autopilot droid brain, and advanced targeting system have also been added. The ship is equipped with two AG-2G quad laser cannons, a concussion launcher, and a surface defense cannon. Smuggling compartments allow illicit goods to be transported undetected. The hull of the Ark continues to bear the scars of it's Captain's struggle against the Triglomerate Empire in the Corellian Sector to give the ship a more menacing appearance, and has also been painted black over the blue that the ship used to have. Apart from this, both inside and out, the Ark is a remarkably well-maintained vessel and was only a few years old by the time Nomund Kor had been gifted the ship when his father retired from racing, leaving the ship, which by that time had already won multiple races and gained a reputation on Pamarthe and elsewhere as one of the fastest ships, to his son Nomund Kor who quickly learned to love and cherish the ship like a child as his father before him did.
